    I totally understand they lack a better service in reaching a specific location anywhere however, they always do an exeptional service in deliveries. This service is not easy and I really appreciate their great efforts.

    No way to get hold anyone at this location by phone. Calling the local number pushes the caller through several recorded messages and caller prompts motivating you to accept an automated answer or pursue online information. Eventually, after a few minutes of this, the system finally says they are connecting you to a customer service agent at which time the phone rings five or six times then provides a recording that no customer service agents are available -- and then it cuts the call! No holding for the next agent. No callback feature. You've just been given the finger then the boot. I did this routine 4-5 times over an entire afternoon, with the exact same result every time. There is no customer service here. Shameful. They need more humans!!!

    Cannot deliver mail right to my condo. They need to READ the building number AND the unit numbers— not just look at the unit numbers since they repeat for every building! Amazon FedEx and UPS get it right!
